Job Description

This job posting is for a position at a Jack in the Box restaurant, which is owned and operated by an independent franchisee, not Jack in the Box Inc. itself. This distinction is important because the independent franchisee is your employer if you are hired, meaning they will be responsible for all matters related to employment, including hiring decisions, wages, staffing, scheduling, supervision, and discipline. The franchise operates under the trusted Jack in the Box brand, known for its fast and reliable food service across the United States. Located at 345 N LBJ Dr, San Marcos, TX, this restaurant offers a dynamic and fast-paced environment where the Restaurant Manager plays a pivotal role in driving success and maintaining operational excellence.

Candidates will use discretion in daily management choices and bear accountability for ensuring effective execution of the Service Profit Chain (SPC) and Brand Promise. This role is critical to developing a strong and cohesive team that delivers excellent internal service to employees and exceptional external service to customers, thereby building restaurant sales and increasing profitability. The manager also ensures full compliance with company policies, procedures, as well as regulatory standards, including food safety and quality protocols. Regular and prompt attendance is an essential requirement for this position.

The role suits those with prior experience in restaurant management or related supervisory positions such as general manager, assistant general manager, catering manager, operations manager, kitchen manager, or shift lead roles. As a hands-on leader, you will foster a positive culture in the restaurant that supports growth, training, and continuous development of your staff. You will be expected to manage all business aspects including sales, profits, food quality, service quality, and employee development. This position offers excellent benefits, reflecting the company’s commitment to its employees and their well-being. Overall, this opportunity provides a career path in the hospitality and food service industry within a respected brand known for operational excellence and customer satisfaction.
